By Trend

The moratorium on business inspections in Azerbaijan will be extended until 2021, Ziyad Samadzade, chairman of the country’s parliamentary committee on economic policy, industry and entrepreneurship, said on October 19.

The business activity inspections have been suspended in Azerbaijan since November 1, 2015. The moratorium is valid for two years. The moratorium does not apply to the inspections of the Prosecutor General's Office and the inspections related to the state security, healthcare, and protection of the country's economic interests.

Samadzade noted that a new paragraph will be added to the bill. This paragraph emphasizes that Azerbaijani government agencies must check the quality of medicines and food products, he added.

He said that Azerbaijan’s Cabinet of Ministers will prepare a list of cases when business inspections must be carried out. They will cover spheres related to citizens’ health, Azerbaijan’s state security and economic interests, he noted.
